At noon the next day, Marvin was awakened by the hunger in his stomach.
He got up quietly, and the half-elf girl was still sleeping soundly on the small bed beside her. Her posture was graceful, her eyelashes trembling slightly, she was peaceful and beautiful.
He didn't disturb Anna, but quickly washed up and went out.
He has many things to do.
Marvin left the Black Horned Eagle Hotel and went to the business district. He still found the blacksmith and bought two identical whiteboard machetes from him before leaving.
Although the dagger is used well, it can't give full play to the characteristics of the dual-sword style. As for the third knife, it is kept as a spare.
Experienced fighters will prepare an extra weapon for themselves in order to deal with various situations.
Then he went to the slums in the northeast corner of the city, where there are many homeless people who are willing to give their lives for a small amount of money. Lots of well-informed guys too.
Marvin needed their help in his move.
Returning from the slums, he lost another thirty silver coins in his pocket.
After that, he bought some food and some necessities in a nearby grocery store, and then quietly returned to the hotel.
When Marvin walked back to the room, Anna had already woken up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, and looked at the pile of things in Marvin's hands with some surprise: "Master Marvin, are we really going to attack the Akron gang?"
"After all, there are only two of us, so we are weak."
Anna wasn't afraid, but just afraid that Marvin might make a mistake.
Marvin handed over a piece of freshly baked butter bread and said softly, "We won't be alone."
"This city is darker than we thought. Maybe it was a mistake for us to come here to ask for help. No one will help us."
"To regain the territory, we must rely on our own strength."
"Let's eat first. After eating these, I want you to go to the countryside."
While drinking clear water, Anna asked in surprise, "Countryside?"
"Green Village, and Misty Village. Andre and the others must have been unable to hold back." Marvin stood by the window, watching the continuous flow of traffic on the street, and said lightly.
"How do you know..." Anna was even more surprised.
"I saw it. That day Andre sneaked into the city to find you. He meant that he was going to regain the territory by himself."
Marvin shook his head and said, "It's a pity that you thought the city hall would take action at that time, so you appeased him, right?"
A strange look flashed in Anna's eyes: "Master Marvin, I may understand what you mean. If the boys from the defense team can come, of course the Akron gangsters are not their opponents, but... they are not allowed in River Beach City Enter with weapons."
"Let them disguise themselves and sneak into River Beach City. As for weapons, I will find a way."
Marvin grabbed a piece of bread and gnawed it clean: "I'll give you ten days."
"Ten days later, I want to see all twenty members of the Baihe Valley defense team standing in front of me."
Anna was slightly agitated.
The boldness that Ma Wen showed at this time was really different. He dared to summon a private guard in River Beach City. Even though he was a nobleman, he was still provoking the City Hall of River Beach City!
But only such a young master Marvin can give Anna hope!
Only in this way can the humiliation they suffered in River Beach City be ended.
Master Marvin is an aristocrat—but in this river beach city, the officials of the city hall fooled them, the casino people deceived them, and some businessmen secretly hired gangsters to try to kill them!
Anna had long remembered this humiliation. The only reason why she didn't break out was only Master Marvin.
Marvin is different now, he has completed an astonishing transformation.
Anna couldn't even see through this young man who had followed her from childhood to learn how to govern the territory.
"But, during the time I was away..." Anna looked at Marvin hesitantly.
She was worried about Marvin's safety.
"I will hide in this hotel. And you have to believe in my current ability, no one can secretly follow me."
Marvin showed a confident smile: "Go, I'll wait for your good news."
…
In the afternoon, Anna, disguised as a rural woman, left River Beach City alone and headed south.
With the mission of Master Marvin on her shoulders, her steps were many times faster than usual!
And Marvin watched her leave silently, and suddenly showed a smile.
That smile was full of murderous intent.
There are at least two purposes for sending Anna away. First, he really needed the strength of the vigorous guard; second, he was going to kill tonight, and with the half-elf housekeeper by his side, he couldn't give it his all. For example, in the process of dealing with the ghouls before, Anna almost ruined his plan.
Sometimes, killing people is a very simple matter. Especially for a master of the night.
Marvin is not a brave man. He knows when to act alone and when to use his strength to the greatest extent. That's why he asked Anna to go to the countryside to mobilize the security team he had sent to protect ordinary villagers.
After the fall of the White River Valley, a large number of civilians fled to the mountain depressions for refuge. Green Village, Misty Village, and Panshui Lake were all territories under Ma Wen's rule. They are in the mountains, so it is easier to avoid the wolf man's pursuit. Because of the regulations of River Beach City, Marvin could only bring the housekeeper into the city for help, and he left the guard team in the countryside.
Those boys couldn't help but want to fight back, just waiting for Marvin's order.
They're both very loyal guys, young and powerful.
But this is not enough.
Marvin knew that there were many shadows behind the Jackal invasion. A twenty-man guard could not fight a well-trained wolf man army, and he had to mobilize more forces.
But before that, he had to figure out who was behind the scenes.
Maybe it was the stingy Uncle Miller, maybe it was someone else.
In short, after tonight, everything will be clear.
…
At night, when the river beach city has not yet curfew, this is the moment when the evil forces in the entire city are boiling the most.
The accountants of the major gangsters began to count today's income in detail, and several novice thieves would be severely beaten by the supervisor because they did not complete the task indicators.
Soon, they will learn painfully how to use their dexterous hands. At that time, they will be spared the pain of flesh and blood, but the money allocated is still only enough to support their families.
This is the law of survival in gray areas.
The prostitutes are standing in the streets and alleys, their faces are covered with thick powder, and sometimes the thick and inferior make-up whitewashes not mediocre beauty, but some more terrifying acne. The two most feared things in this business are pregnancy and illness. Both mean they will lose their jobs.
Pyroxene Tavern, backyard basement.
Bright candles illuminate the swaying figures of the dancers. The two men sat shoulder to shoulder on the tiger leather sofa, laughing.
"Master Farmer, today I made a special trip to find a girl who suits your taste. You must enjoy it later."
One of the tall men pointed to a rather plump dancer and said.
His eyebrows are very thick, and there is a scar between his eyebrows, he looks like a ruthless character.
The other guy was short in stature, with a wretched look, heavy eye bags, and his body was typically hollowed out by alcohol.
He stared at the dancing girl intently, nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay! Mr. Diafes, as long as you successfully get rid of that trash, I will definitely talk to my father when I get back, and let him increase his investment in you!"
Diafis said calmly: "Thank you, Master Farmer. That kid named Marvin can't escape our hands. We have sent a small team to hunt him down. It won't be long before his Human heads will float on the Songzi River."
"At that time, the White River Valley will belong to my father!" Farmar said viciously, "Jin and his son have occupied my father's territory for so long, it's time to return our things to us!"
"That's natural." Diafes said with a laugh: "The group of gnolls don't ask for a high price, and they can be sent away with some food. Once Marvin dies, everything will be easy to talk about."
The two laughed, and suddenly, a man in black hurried over, bent over and whispered beside Diafes.
After hearing this, Diafes didn't change his face: "Let Team 2 go, and I have to decide on such a small matter?"
The man in black left quickly.
Just as Diafes was about to say something, Farmer suddenly jumped up, causing all the dancers to scatter, leaving only the plump girl at a loss.
Farmer hugged her and pulled her to the small room beside her.
The dancer struggled a bit, and said in horror: "Master Diafes, when you came to me, you clearly said that it was just for dancing?!"
Diafes said lightly: "Sorry, the plan has changed."
boom!
The door of the small house was closed. There was the exclamation of the dancing girl and Farmer's obscene laughter.
…
Diafes narrowed his eyes, his expression suddenly became serious.
"Team 1 has been out for so long, and there is no news at all. What's going on?"
At this moment, the man in black immediately turned back, looked around, and said in a low voice, "Two bad news."
"The people from Team 1 were found. They were all dead bodies in the small forest on the beach of the Songzi River. The enemy used a machete, and the killing method was very sharp."
Diafes' pupils shrank.
"Also, in addition to what I told you before, our warehouse in the dock area was set on fire, and there was also a crowd fighting in a casino to the east. The people who watched the scene couldn't suppress it."
Diafes stared angrily: "Someone is looking for trouble secretly?"
"It might be the green snake, or the white peacock." The man in black said worriedly, "Our recent rapid expansion is enough to arouse their hostility."
"No matter who they are, Akron's rise is inevitable."
Diafes suddenly stood up from the sofa and ordered: "Let the third team go over, and those who make trouble will be killed without mercy."
"But in this way, there are only two teams at the Pyroxene Tavern, and there are some ordinary members." The man in black said.
"What are you afraid of, I'm here!" Diafes strode towards the wall on one side, and took down a huge axe.
At this moment, a little guy suddenly rushed down from above and shouted loudly:
"It's not good! My lord! Someone made trouble above and killed many of us!"
"How many of them are there!?" the man in black asked loudly.
Xiao Xiaoao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, showing a hint of panic:
"… one!"
